I agree! The problem here is with the .img-responsive class which set a display:block on the image. I don't think we need this class on the logo. I will remove it. <img class="logo-eclipse-default img-responsive" alt="Eclipse.org logo" src="/eclipse.org-common/themes/solstice/public/images/logo/eclipse-800x188.png"> Done! http://git.eclipse.org/c/www.eclipse.org/eclipse.org-common.git/commit/?id=566b975f988503d5a149e8ea4a18269888ac924e Thanks for the bug report! |
Created attachment 244695 [details] red shows area that links to "eclipse.org". Blue shows what it should be. It seems nearly the "whole white area" in header will link user back to "eclipse.org". This is less user friendly than it should be. To click a blank area should do nothing ... unless it's "near" the object to click on. As it is, just about anywhere in the head takes you to "eclipse.org". Should be only (near) the logo. There's a couple of use cases where I click white space, and expect it to do nothing. Sometimes, I may want to set a book mark, or invoke a debug function, and just push the wrong mouse button (left select, instead of right context menu). More frequently I might have some text selected in body (for what ever reason, usually involving edits I want to make, or occasionally just to help me focus on one part I'm reading closely. And in these cases, I often want to "select" a "white area" to deselect what ever I did have selected. So anyway, I think just a general "web usability" principle that clicking white space should not do anything. (And, I mean white space that is not near the object, of course).
